Wonderful

Parking was easy. The staff are courtesy and professional. This was my second time staying here and my first time leaving a review for them , what compelled me to do so was them willing to work with me for an early check in. I never asked for an early check in during my first stay but due to my plans it was necessary this second time around and luckily they allowed it . This sole reason is enough for me to want to leave a review as they did not have too . For the price you pay it’s about what you would expect . I always check for bed bugs and did not find any both stays so that’s always a plus . I would stay here again if there price range remains about the same otherwise I would just pay the $60-$80 difference towards a name brand hotel.
The property was really clean. The heater saved us with the chilly nights we had. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. Will definitely be staying here for future trips. 10/10
What a great place to stay! Shawn (or maybe it's Shaun or Sean) and Xavier were fantastic hosts. The hotel is in a great location, walkable to lots of good restaurants, and (if you're a fan of classic TV) the Brady Bunch house is less than a mile away!
Cute little cottage type rooms. Covered parking adjacent to room. Walked to near by shopping center. Staff were personable and kind. Would stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was very nice, comfy beds, nice shower / toiletries, friendly manager accommodated my early check in, and in the morning I got coffee, oatmeal, and a muffin. I will stay here again the next time I go to Universal Studios
I really enjoyed the staff~ the location was perfect for a conference I was attending~ I felt safe the whole time~ private parking~ modest, clean rooms. Such a wonderful find!
I absolutely love staying here just for the staff alone. This was our second time
Coming but this time bringing our kids. I somehow only booked a one king bed and they had no problem upgrading me free of charge to the two king room. They are very kind, funny, and are available when in need. I recommend staying here for Universals Studios as it’s not too far, the parking is secluded and private, and easy to get in and out of.
Super close to Universal Studios. Staff was very nice. Room was nice, needed a few touch ups and beds were not the most comfortable. Loved the parking area and they close the gate at night. Would recommend
Clean room and bathroom, front desk man was amazing at accommodating for universals HHN 2pm entry i really really loved that! Parking is limited, but workers helped us when we came back from the night out at universals
